A Leader posted this to TLC. She gave me permission to post it here for you
to read and respond. Is anyone familiar with these "seven studies"?:

My mom picks up this cheap woman's magazine, Woman's World. I was
reading through it when I found an article titled <Safeguard your baby
from SIDS> One of the suggestions was
<Having your baby sleep in her crib>
Regardless of what room they are in, babies should sleep alone in their
own cribs on a firm mattress. At least seven studies have shown that
sleeping with their parents increases the risk of SIDS, possibly because
it heightens the risk of rebreathing.
AAAAAAAuuuuuuuggggghhhhhh!! I can't believe this. I would like to see
the seven studies that were done. I haven't written yet because I want
to include the studies that show co-sleeping prevents SIDS, and also
breastfeeding which was never mentioned. The email address is
